Groups: Overview

Once users have been added to the platform they can then be assigned to a Group. Groups are a great way to send tailored communications and assign skills. It will also allow you to see any skills shortages inside a group which could mean you need to resource additional skills. 

You can select a group to create, or have visibility of certain review types.

Each group has a description, @alias, group manager and logo and can be either permanent or only last for a specified period of time - which is useful for project based groups.

Groups have no hierarchy and can span across departments.

Great examples of groups include mental health first aiders and fire wardens. This is ideal as you can search for people in specific groups via the People Directory.

If an person has been assigned to a group is will appear against their profile in the People Directory.
